Title: remote playing with AGS
Post by: spook1 on Tue 22/07/2003 21:43:28
Hi ,

Since I have set up my own server I am wondering if it might be possible to play ags games from a remote console.
This way the guests would have to go through the trouble of downloading the game, and I can write the scores to a file, keeping track of the results.

I plan to use ags in teaching classes, and therefore it would be very convenient to keep track of the results of the children.

kind regards,

martin

You could use a program like VNC http://www.tightvnc.org/ possibly. I don't know if AGS works with it, though.

EDIT:

Gave it a try and it was very slow. Had to fiddle with the settings to get the update right, too. It may be best to use a network drive to run the program from instead!

I will investigate the vpn option,
